southampton at stamford bridge. but earlier, manchester united and everton missed the chance of going top, after it finished 1—1 at old trafford. nestor mcgregor was watching. old trafford and 70,000 expectant fans. 0ptimistic for the future due to the present form of a legend from the past. although christiano ronaldo started on the bench — and it would be the away site who came closest to opening the scoring, demarai gray with this run and low effort. well saved by david tejeda — the speed at which the uighur covered the ground and pressed even 0lympic covered the ground and pressed even olympic champion hussein bolt. the game was my first goal, step forward anthony martial. played in place of christiano ronaldo. 1— zero at half—time and shortly after — a site that fans and even some away fans would've been happy to see. christiano ronaldo ready for action. the portuguese striker is well known for his trademark goal celebration. the good news is united fans got to see it. the bad news is it came from everton�*s townsend. five minutes from the end, the visitors thought they had won the game — but var ruled he was off—site. at the final whistle, a point each, but one team clearly happier with the result. nestor mcgregor, bbc news. as nesta said, contrasting emotions for the two sides. rafa benitez�*s everton are fourth — they've lostjust once this season. for 0le gunnar solskjaer, his side are third, but have picked up just one win in their last four games in all competitions. i felt we started well, scored a very good goal first half. we should have had that cutting edge and we should have done better, of course. and it's a disappointing goal to concede. it's happened too many times. we are in on the tack, or this time it's a corner, and we have enough force behind it, wejust don't deal in a the situation. if we can rely on that feeling, we've got to do it. we can't say, "well, we deserve more points," because when you don't score more goals, you don't. i feel like we played against a very good _ feel like we played against a very good team. lavishly is not easy, and we did _ good team. lavishly is not easy, and we did welt — good team.

it's back to winning ways for thomas tuchel�*s chelsea, after two late goals gave them victory over southampton. trevoh chalobah headed the blues in front before james ward prowse levelled from the spot, but the saints captain was then sent off for a late lunge onjorginho. two late goals from timo werner and ben chilwell gave chelsea the three points, as they moved top of the table. wolves, meanwhile, got theirfirst home win of the season with a 2—1 victory over newcastle united at molineux. two goals from hwang hee chan coming either side of a jeff hendrick strike to give bruno lage's side the three points. newcastle drop into the relegation zone, while wolves move up to tenth. elsewhere, leeds have theirfirst win of the season at the seventh attempt. marcelo bielsa's side beat watford 1—0 at elland road — diego llorente with the goal in the first half. norwich had lost all their league games before today, but they're off the mark with a point at home to burnley. 0—0 at turf moor. and it's just into the second half at the amex stadium — brighton could go level with chelsea at the top with a win against in—form arsenal. it is currently goalless there. bournemouth have moved three points clear at the top of the championship, coming from behind to beat sheffield united 2—1. the big result of the day came at lunchtime, though coventry with a stunning second half display to beat fulham 4—1, and they move up to third. the visitors even led 1—0 at half time, but four goals in just 23 minutes helped coventry put their own midweek 5—0 thrashing by luton behind them. this goal from viktor gyokeres wrapped it up with 20 minutes to go. fulham are fifth — it's their worst league defeat for more than two years. with the top two, rangers and hibernian, not playing untiltomorrow, hearts took their opportunity to go top of the scottish premiership, beating motherwell 2—0 at home. goals from liam boyce and stephen kingsley wrapped up the points. dundee united moved four points clear of celtic in fifth place with a 1—0 win against ross county. dundee remain without a win, losing at stjohnstone, while st mirren claimed their second win of the season at livingstone. to the women's super league, where both chelsea and arsenal are hoping to end the day on top. chelsea have done theirjob with a 3—1 win over brighton earlier today. guro reiten scored the first before sam kerr's fifth goal of the season gave chelsea a comfortable lead at half—time. danielle carter pulled one back for the seagulls in the second half, but beth england's goal ten minutes from time secured the three points for chelsea. arsenal are at aston villa, the game is live on bbc two at the moment, arsenal are currently doing their bit as well, looking to continue their 100% record. there i— bit as well, looking to continue their 100% record. there 1— zero up there in the second half, kim little taking arsenal back up to the top of the league. now, quite a day for saracens — earlier they announced a £32 million takeover of the club, with a consortium of investors that includes south african world cup—winning former captain francois pienaar. and then, a defeat at leicester in the premiership in the cruellest way possible — as imran sidat reports. all the pre— match takeover talk was put on hold as two of the bleak�*s biggest hitters prepared for battle. even the pouring rain didn't deter a packed crowd at welford road, for this early—season blockbuster. after a cagey opening, it was the ever reliable boot of 0wen farrell which gave saracens a nine point lead. it was turning into a kicking battle, with george ford responding as he reduced the deficit at the break. and with just over ten minutes remaining, the game finally sprung into life. lester thought they had the first try of the match... but replay showed jack van port fleet was off—site in the build—up. was that there chance gone? well, remarkably, in the dying seconds, this happened. lester were awarded a penalty try to dramatically win the game by one point. saracens may feel hard done by, but the tigers won't care as they continue their perfect start to move to the top of the premier sheep —— premiership. imran sidat, bbc news. new zealand failed at the final hurdle in their quest to finish the rugby championship, with a 100% winning record. they were beaten by south africa, in real thriller on the gold coast, which went right down to the wire. south africa hit ia second—half points to recover from a first half deficit, butjordie barrett restored the all blacks lead. with the siren already gone, the springboks snatched victory with this last—ditch penalty from elton jantjies, and with the win they move top of the world rankings. but, despite defeat and losing their number—one status, the all blacks still lifted the silverware, seven points clear of their nearest rivals. let's get a quick look at some of the day's other sport now. it's all to play for in the one—off day—night women's test between australia and india. the visitors declared on 377—8. deepti sharma adding 66 to opener simriti mandhana's 127. australia finished the day 0111113—4 at close, some 234 runs behind meg lanning top scoring for the aussies so far with 38. britain's cameron norrie is in action in a few hours looking to reach another atp final. he beat denis

drive association world championship. fellow american kyle berkshire won the event with a distance of 422 yards. lizzie diagnan has become the first female winner of the legendary paris roubaix cycle race. 125 years after the classic one day race was first held, one of britain's finest cyclists has written her name into the sport's history books once again. drew savage reports. mud, sweat, and gears — all the ingredients necessary for a monumental ride over the treacherous roads of northern france. by the time the rates had reached the famous cobbles, lizzie diagnan more than two minutes ahead of the pellets on and using all her substantial bike handling skills to stay there. the advantage being at the front is you can stay out of trouble. marianna voss took up the chase as the competition fell victim to the conditions. crashes and punctures a part of every perry roubaix, and lizzie diagnan avoided both. a three—time world champion who has so often been her nemesis, cut her lead in half. but that's as close as she got. some passive court... she reached the finish alone. . ,, , ., eiuht alone. . she gets her moment! eight moment women's _ alone. . she gets her moment!

cobblestones. earlier, i spoke to hayley simmonds, a former team—mate of diagnan�*s who herself is a former commonwealth games bronze medallist, aboutjust how big an achievement this is. it was a brilliant performance by lizzie. it's actually quite rare that we see her grimacing like that, but you can see just how much she wanted that victory. and yeah, it was always going to be a pretty iconic win for whoever took the victory today. and lizzie wanted it, and she gave absurdly everything to make sure she was the first person to enter the velodrome, then cross the line —— she gave up so the everything. the line -- she gave up so the everything-— everything. that race is very renowned — everything. that race is very renowned for _ everything. that race is very renowned for the _ everything. that race is very renowned for the terrain - everything. that race is very| renowned for the terrain and conditions, and today's race was particularly treacherous, wasn't it? it's a race like no other. we've seen varied conditions over the years in the men's race, and i think in a way it was kind of fitting and made it more special that the first ever women's addition was held in actually pretty bad conditions. i think it will have drawn more spectators in to watch the race today, which is quite important from a women's cycling perspective. so although if i was writing it, i would have been dreading today's conditions, for a spectator sitting on my cellphone watching it, it was amazing. it on my cellphone watching it, it was amazinu. . , on my cellphone watching it, it

deserving of the honour. hopefully it will do really good things for cycling in the uk, which has suffered quite a lot over the last few years with covid, our racing scene has taken quite a big hit. it's been difficult for british ricer democrat writers to get out to the continent, as well — so hopefully her victory today will help the recovery process, in terms of cycling in the uk. for help the

spent, i think it was around 13 times lower for the women, the overall price part, compared to the men's prize pot, which is lavishly a huge disparity. with the prize money, although organisers can set their own levels of prize money, most organisers for races actually go by the uci regulations as to what the minimum levels can be. so it's really at the uci level that we need to be kind of looking at the prize money situation. but saying that, quite often what you see and women's racing is the teams that take home the prize money are those teams that actually already have more equality
